We've been walking by the Mission Cheese storefront for what seems like months. I loved the drawing and font they had on the sign in the window, and I love cheese and I couldn't wait for them to open. I figured though it would just be a cheese shop, so I was even more excited when I heard they serve food and wine and beer.
When we walked in at around 2:30, the place was full. I loved the palette they chose in designing the space, and the Heath ceramic bar is just awesome. We ordered two grilled cheese sandwiches: the Cheddarhead (2 types of cheddar with apple and ale chutney) and the Pork and Cheese (Gruyere, salami, mustard and cornichons). Oh, and some coffee.
We loved our food, the coffee was great and it reaffirmed my love for this neighborhood. We spoke to the owner, who was very sweet and also totally inspiring in that she opened this place in a year and a half without any previous cheese-shop or running-a-business type experience.
I'm now plotting my return to try that mac n cheese. Yum.

Love the colors from these pictures. The restaurant and the food do look great. So amazed how people can start something good when they haven't had previous experience.
